Whitelist Rave on VIP

0. Proposer Info


1. TL;DR

This proposal requests the whitelisting of RAVE Trade to Initia’s VIP (Vested Interest Program).


2. Background

2-1 About the Project

  • Protocol Name : RAVE Trade
  • Protocol Blurb: The first quanto perpetual protocol. Trade anything, with everything.
  • Protocol Type : DEX Perpetual Futures
  • Docs : docs.rave.trade
  • Audits : [insert audit links or N/A]

3. Rationale & Impact

  • Motivation and benefit to the Interwoven Economy :
    • RAVE Trade permissionlessly connects the Interwoven Ecosystem with on-chain trading. Stake any asset to provide trading liquidity, or use any asset as trading collateral for major perp pairs.
    • VIP on RAVE enables tailored incentives that allows RAVE Trade to manage and grow both trading activity and liquidity depth for desired collateral assets. Additionally, VIP on RAVE reinforces the broader Interwoven Economy by providing additional incentivized use-cases for ecosystem assets like LSTs and LRTs.
  • VIP Scoring Criteria (Details)
    • Users can earn RAVE VIP points by trading or providing liquidity with whitelisted assets.
    • Each whitelisted collateral asset is assigned a base rate of X points, priced per INIT of value using TOKEN/INIT DEX price.
      • Eg. $INIT: 20 points per INIT
    • For trading, users earn VIP points per INIT of unleveraged volume.
      • Opening and closing trade volume are counted seperately
    • Leverage acts as a multiplier on the base rate, determined by the formula:
      • Leverage multiplier = 1+ (leverage - 1)/5
      • 1x receives 1x multiplier
      • 11x receives 3x multiplier
      • 51x receives 11x multiplier
    • Therefore, for a trade, VIP score is calculated as follows:
      • Points Earned = [Unleveraged Open + Closing Volume (in INIT)] * Base Rate * Leverage Multiplier
    • Users can also earn RAVE VIP points by depositing whitelisted assets into the RAVE Cave. For liquidity, points accrue per day based on the users LP size in INIT, at 5x the base rate.
      • Eg. $INIT: 100 points per INIT per day
    • On an epoch basis, RAVE will proportionally distribute esINIT VIP rewards to users based on their VIP score.
    • The threshold for the VIP target score is 60%. Meaning that in a stage, a user must earn 60% of the amount earned in the previous VIP stage to fully claim the previous stage’s rewards.Please write down specific formulas. Proposals that do not contain specific formulas will be removed.

4. Proposal Details

Field Value Description
Operator Address 0x97136B44a2a28407964af15De7D23Ea8882C3BBa The address eligible to claim a portion of the VIP rewards allocated to the rollup team as commission. This address does not need to be a system key (like admin or bridge executor).
Bridge ID 17 An identifier automatically generated during the setup of the bridge between the Rollup and Initia.
Bridge Address init1wul4rtjagr0cnrqey4ewl98j3v2uthapeh6q0vfns35d35l8qamsfc9gxu The L1 address where tokens are locked when bridging from L1 to L2. This address is auto-generated during bridge setup.
Scoring Contract Address 0x25F77fb5Bd78B3BeB4d85c60B6262924775CBf99 The contract deployed on the rollup that assigns VIP scores to users. These scores are snapshotted on L1 and used to build a Merkle tree for VIP reward distribution.
Operator Commission Max Rate 0.2 The maximum commission rate the rollup can configure.
Operator Commission Max Change 0.1 The maximum allowed change in the commission rate per update. For example, if OCR is 0.3 and OCMC is 0.2, OCR can only be adjusted between 0.1 and 0.5.
Operator Commission Rate 0.1 The actual commission rate. If 100 INIT is distributed and OCR is 0.2, the rollup team receives 20 INIT.
VM EVM The VM type of the rollup is using.

Proposed Update to VIP Scoring Mechanism:

Current Criteria
Liquidity providers earn VIP points daily based on the INIT value of their deposits in RAVE CAVEs with a 5x multiplier on the base rate.

Proposed Change
Reduce the multiplier for RAVE CAVE VIP points from a 5x boost to the 1x base rate.

Rationale
As a perpetual protocol, trading remains the core engine behind protocol growth and yield. Current VIP criteria heavily skews points distribution towards RAVE CAVE depositors. RAVE CAVE yield is ultimately driven by trading activity. By adjusting the multiplier, we aim to direct more rewards toward traders, incentivizing greater trading activity and stimulating more trading volume. This increased volume, in turn, will generate more fees for RAVE CAVEs.

New Criteria
Liquidity providers will earn VIP points daily based on the value of their RAVE CAVE deposits in INIT, at 1x the base rate.
